gwynnegaI'm happy to announce that my poem "dear Semele" will appear in a future issue of Dreams & Nightmares. It is my second poetry sale of the year. It's nice to have things to look forward to, amid The Horrors.
I have been trying to write about Semele for a very long time. One of my first-ever poems (from when I was in college, I think?) was about her, and I wrote another in 2010. (Both are unpublished, which is probably a good thing.) I feel like I finally got it right, this time.
Today poets.org's Poem of the Day is Bryher's "In Exile," which I like a lot. Clearly I need to read more poems by Bryher.
